How About Some BP Oil With That Tuna Sandwich?

Also, in this state the chemicals will also be most easily ingested by marine life through normal respiration of water, thereby entering into the food chain to be passed along as each creature consumes the one beneath it in the chain. Think about that for a second, these chemicals will be able to be ingested into marine life by respiration and food consumption, eventually reaching us through the food chain, and correlate that to the known effects of mercury in "top of the food chain" species like tuna.

Just imagine, all those millions of gallons of oil will eventually reach your plate.
